They are not an option because even some low-income people want a home. Stupid regulations like minimum lot sizes really just close out those people from being able to afford one. Just like minimum wage laws prevent some percentage of the low-income population from finding viable work. What's ironic is that minimum wage laws hurt the very people they are targetted at helping! > I'm all for limited government, but only within reason. Such a definite standard as ``what's reasonable!'' Masster is very nicccce, oh yesss, very niccce. > Wise zone can do a lot to ensure the long term health of a community. > Poor zoning can destroy it. And again, who is going to determine this ``wise zoning?'' Some kind of omniscient group of people that know better than other groups of people what is better for them and society?
